This weeks question is:
How has your reading habits changed since you were a teen? or If you are still a teen what new genres are you in love with currently?A: When I was a teen I would only read when I had too. Except for To Kill A Mockingbird, I hated every book that my English teacher forced me to read. It wasn't until I graduated college that I really started to love reading. There are so many awesome YA books out today that I wish were around ten years ago when I was a teenager.
Thanks you! Yes! Me too. I couldn't be bothered with reading as a teen.

Yes I hated the books my english teachers used to force on me. They really need to update their reading lists.

ReplyDeleteStop by when you can, i love meeting new people!

New follower. guess I'm the odd one. I loved reading as a teen. I had an awesome teacher who made small book groups in the class and we pretty much chose what we wanted to read and then we would get together in our groups to discuss them.

I loved reading as a teen. But I did hate absolutely every single book I was forced to read in English class. Until senior year when I read The Count of Monte Cristo, totally weird since I was already a paranormal girl!

I agree, so many great YA books out today that just were not around when I was a teenager. I always loved reading though, even as a really young kid.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I may have read back when I was a teenager had we had the type of YA books we do now. I'm glad YA has become so big!
ReplyDeleteI know, it's an AWESOME time to be a teen because there are sooo many good books out there. I'm glad you're enjoying them now! Great answer!!
